About Tongzhou Zhihang
Tongzhou Zhihang develops navigation, situational-awareness and intelligent-cockpit systems for leisure boats and yachts. Its technology combines cameras, radar, positioning data and onboard software to support route planning, obstacle awareness, berthing assistance and vessel monitoring. The company offers systems for integration into new vessels and retrofit installation on existing boats.
Its commercial programme also includes a standardised 58-foot smart-yacht platform being developed with manufacturing partners. This combines the navigation and cockpit stack with vessel control, connected services and production engineering. Tongzhou Zhihang was founded in 2025 and remains in early commercial development.
